问题 So she vanquished them, horse and foot, just as she had vanquished their fathers thirty years before about the smell. That was two years after her father’ s death and a short time after her sweetheart—the one we believed would marry her—had deserted her. After her father’ s death she went out very little; after her sweetheart went away, people hardly saw her at all. A few of the ladies had the temerity to call, but were not received, and the only sign of life about the place was the Negro man—a young man then—going in and out with a market basket.
Questions:
A. What is the title of the story from which the excerpt is taken? Who is the author?
B. What does the phrase "horse and foot" in the first line mean?
C. What does the heroine of this story symbolize?
选项
答案A. "A Rose for Emily". Faulkner. B. It means "completely". C. She is the symbol of the Old South but the prisoner of the past.
